Excerpt from Religion RationalizedTheology has become deplorably mis judged, discredited and unappreciated be cause of its identity with many creeds and dogmas which are known to be false and which stand as towering barriers to progress. It should be borne in mind, however, that creeds and dogmas are words as applicable to science as to theology. Ideally theology is as free from irrational creeds and dogmas as is science and, as a matter of fact, science at one time was as much polluted by such creeds and dogmas, and as much impeded in its growth, as theology is to-day.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Great and Good, an Introduction to Rational Religion Books on Religion fall under three heads: First, the great mass of orthodox literature; next, the semi orthodox; and lastly, that which is rational or openly heretical. The semi-orthodox writers are marked by caution, reticence, and something bordering on insincerity. They are adepts at pouring new wine into old bottles. They know exactly that spice of heresy which the public will tolerate, and are careful not to exceed it by the fraction of a grain. The rational or openly heretical books are mostly agnostic, atheistic, materialistic, or negative. In fact some people seem to regard the word rational as equivalent to atheistic. Not many books on Religion are at once frankly rational, and at the same time uncompromisingly idealist. Who will ascend the watch-tower of Idealism and tell us in plain language what he sees? If this task required any higher qualification than absolute sincerity, assuredly the present writer would not have undertaken it. The object, then, of this book is to state the religious opinions of the Great and Good men of past and present times, and to trace these opinions to Idealism as the central principle in which they meet and harmonise. Wherever possible I have given not my own words but those of some distinguished writer. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from More Light: A Rational Treatise on Biblical Subjects With this principle imbedded in my breast do I enter the task of shedding more light on subjects that so often come before us inquiringly.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Rational Test: Bible Doctrine in the Light of Reason To show that certain fundamental biblical doc trines, as held by orthodox believers, are reasonable that is the chief purpose of this volume. The author's position is that reason should not be placed above the Bible; that is rationalism. Very often the proper attitude of the human mind before God's truth is, Believing where we cannot prove. It is not ir rational that it should be so, for in many of the coma monest affairs of life We must Often walk by faith, and not by sightIt is incorrect to think that faith and reason are opposed to each other. This error springs from the supposition that faith and credulity are synonymous terms. So far from this being true, it is an undisputed fact that many of the wisest and best men of the world possess the most childlike faith in Christ and His revelation. Superior knowledge makes a man con scious of the limitations of human learning, and, there fore, leads to humble trust and a childlike disposition. Whether faith is rational or not depends upon its Object. Faith in that which is true and right is a most rational act of the soul blindly to accept error is credulity, and is, therefore, irrational.

Excerpt from Religion Rationalized, Vol. 2 In undertaking to point out the unique divinity of Jesus Christ and the Bible, and to give the sufficient reasons for believing in some of the other general and most fundamental facts of the true Christian religion, such as immortality, heaven and hell, and man's responsibility as regards his own eternal destiny, it is necessary, at the start, that we should be clear as to certain guiding principles and methods in reasoning.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Foundations of Religion This little book is based upon the application of psycho logy and psychological methods to the comparative and historical study of religions and religious material. No writer on the subject of Religion can avoid what to every reader will be sins of commission and sins of omission. He can only write as the subject presents itself to him at the time, with the recognition that a less imperfect knowledge and a greater attention to the work of others would have increased whatever value his own work may have. Moreover, in his desire to em phasize certain points that seem to him essential, he is doubtless ignoring or dealing too inadequately with points that to others may seem more essential. This little book aims merely at introducing the reader to certain fundamental aspects of the vast subject of Religion; it does not concern itself with the value of any particular religion, or with what may be called the Foundations of Theology. It seeks to deal with the subject quite generally, though, it is hoped, in a way that may interest and stimulate.
